Film.com's FREE movie of the week is "Love the Hard Way." Oscar-winner Adrien Brody and Charlotte Ayanna star in this drama about a thief who falls for a curious, beautiful young woman. As their intimacy grows, a slick cop (Pam Greer) is closing in.
Anne is an eighteenth-century Breton woman who, jilted at the altar, decides to cut her hair off, disguise herself as a man, and join a ship. Her fiance, it turns out, was merely drunk, and travels to Marseille to try and join her. Meanwhile, she has been discovered, jumps ship with a friendly Arab, and in Marseille gets close to a hooker who likes her all the more when she discovers that Anne is in fact a woman.
